Pelton Turbine Test Rig.
Pelton Turbine Test Rig
Test rig consists of a Pelton wheel water Turbine, designed for
laboratory experimental purposes and to conduct test in metric units.
The setup consists of a Pelton turbine coupled to a rope brake
dynamometer. A centrifugal pump supplies water at high pressure to the
turbine unit. The turbine consists of a cast iron body with a large
transparent acrylic window, a nozzle and spear arrangement, a rotor
assembly of shaft, runner and a brake drum all mounted on a sturdy base
frame. The pelton buckets and nozzle are made of gunmetal and the spear
made of brass for corrosion resistance. The input to the turbine is
controlled by adjusting the spear position with a hand wheel. The
transparent perspex sheet side casing is provided for visual observation
of flow on the buckets. The power developed by the turbine is absored
by the rope brake dynamometer. Instruments are provided to measure the
input water flow rate & pressure as well as speed & torque.
Experimental Capabilities:
To measure power developed by Pelton Turbine.
To calculate meachanical efficiency of the Turbine.
To plot performance curved for Pelton Turbine.
